From Galatians to the Garage
"And the Lord shall make thee plenteous in goods, in the fruit of thy body, and in the fruit of thy cattle, and in the fruit of thy ground, in the land which the Lord sware unto thy fathers to give thee.... Thou shalt lend unto many nations, and thou shalt not...
Don’t Buy the Lie!
"Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you" (Luke 10:19). Satan can't force you to do anything. He doesn't have the power. All he can do is make a presentation and...
Perfected For All Time
"For by one offering He has perfected for all time those who are sanctified." (Heb. 10:14 NASB) Jesus presented Himself to God and offered His blood as a one-time sacrifice for all people. God accepted that offering and declared us to be restored to His good...
‘They Jerked the Power of God Out of Me!’
To see thy power and thy glory, so as I have seen thee in the sanctuary. (Ps. 63:2)I've laid hands on people for healing, ministering to them by faith the healing power of God. And I knew it when that healing power went into them. I felt it in my hands as it went...

The Umpire Rules
"And let the peace (soul harmony which comes) from Christ rule (act as umpire continually) in your hearts ..." (Col. 3:15 (AMP). Allow the peace of God to be the umpire. Allow the peace of God to call the shots, safe or out. There have been several times I almost...
Midnight Praise
"And at midnight Paul and Silas prayed, and sang praises unto God: and the prisoners heard them" (Acts 16:25). Singing, praising, and thanksgiving all go together. Paul and Silas had been beaten with many stripes, cast into prison, and their feet put in stocks. But...
Making Progress But Going Nowhere
Wisdom from above creates a sense of direction and opportunity in our lives. It continually points us to the path that will bring us the greatest results and the deepest sense of fulfillment. Without this godly wisdom, everything in life begins to seem vague and...
Living Without the Pain of Discouragement
The dictionary definition of disappointment is "to fail to meet the expectation or hope of a good." If you are expecting something good and it doesn't happen, the temptation to enter into disappointment is there. The devil is just waiting to lightly push it over on...
